I'm having random kickbacks (backfires) when starting.
The engine starts easily, runs as well as ever, ticks over at about 800 rpm, but very occasionally it kicks back on start up for no apparent reason.
Having tried everything in the book and more, it occurred to me this morning that the latest bout (and I've no idea if this is true of the others) was just after I'd decided to give the old girl a treat and put premium fuel in instead of bog standard with Ethanol.
Has anyone else noticed this? I'm wondering if it's due to the premium fuel burning quicker ........... or whatever.
